A) The suspended structure exhibits a combination of rib bending or flexure, stretching, and hinging (angular deformations) as a 10T1/2 cell moves across the web structure (1–6). White arrows indicate the direction of movement with associated time stamps. B) The PPR web structure resists cells movements. C,D) Frame-to-frame trajectory of multiple webpoints after 10T1/2 cell seeding on PPR and NPR structures. Data pooled from different locations on the web structures for 2 h with 8 min intervals. Web-points of the NPR structures move significantly more as compared to PPR web-points. E) Graph shows effective Poisson's ratio upon cellular strains in the x- and y-directions.
